Leadership at every level
Supporting your development goals
At Synchrony, we believe that our leaders have the power to drive incredible work experiences that reflect our values. That’s why we’re committed to developing strong leadership skills for every employee, at every career level. We’ve listened to our employees to build leadership development programs that support their growth—from interns to associates to senior leaders. Here, you can reach your professional ambitions through formal development programs, self-directed learning and online resources. Explore a few of these programs below.
Business Leadership Program
Our Business Leadership Program (BLP) establishes a strong foundation for Synchrony’s future leaders through its four-day externship, 10-week internship and two-year full-time programs. BLP participants are immersed in our growth-oriented culture from day one, learning about our business, networking with one another and driving innovation for our business.
Skills Training for Evolving Professionals
Our Skills Training for Evolving Professionals (STEP) Program allows hourly employees to deepen their knowledge and develop the leadership skills they need to take their career to the next level. STEP participants complete self-paced coursework, job shadow, rotate assignments and interact with supportive mentors to explore career paths and take the next step in their careers.
Synchrony Leadership Development Experience
Synchrony Leadership Development Experience (SLDE) takes high-potential VP level talent and deepens their leadership skills, broadens their network and provides access to senior leadership. In 2023, we held our first SLDE cohort specifically for our colleagues in India and the Philippines, focusing on bringing out the best in teams, leading with a growth mindset and strategic thinking.
Self-Directed Learning at every career level
No matter where you find yourself in your career journey, you can improve your leadership skills through self-directed learning at Synchrony. Through our partnerships with educational institutions like Harvard, Franklin Covey and the Thayer Leadership Development Group, we provide exceptional leadership development that suits your schedule and ambitions.
